Worse for which parents? You’re still trying to choose kids who are already getting the best schools over kids who have been robbed of a decent education. By choosing the kids already privileged, you’re choosing to keep everyone else out, and beneath. Keep doing that and blame the kids who were robbed for their…

America is based upon the premise that education is the great equalizer by which individuals have the opportunity to transcend class and race. That’s the theory.

This WH comes for black women early and often and it’s a DISGRACE, and Suckabee is the main culprit. She has had the occasion to come for Ryan, Maxine Waters, Jemele Hill, Oprah, Rep. Fredericka Wilson, even Omarosa, and when she comes for them, it’s with a certain glee, or a glimmer in her eye (the normal one, not…

Perhaps we should start passing out these ally masturbatory aids:

I’m gonna reply to you with the assumption that you aren’t a raging fucking troll.

Did you know that “give your children an advantage in life” and “don’t fuck over other kids by maintaining systemic racism” aren’t two things at odds with one another? It’s like, wow, you don’t have to choose between the two!

Here’s a thought: How about just being a good person?

You do realize there are beautiful, rich Africans, right?

Goddamn.

Considering the state of police nowadays, the odds of that 911 caller trying to get him killed are pretty damn high.

Linda: Omg you guise! I think Kanye is so deep and makes some really great points! Slavery was a choice.

Oh definitely,

Kim can start by going away. She’s not okay, either.
